"If the photo is still quite large (in pixel area..."

If you haven`t already cropped the image to the bare minimum area (e.g., changing a waist-up pose to a shoulders-up headshot), do that to eliminate unneeded pixels. If the photo is still quite large (in pixel area; say it`s 500W x 700H) after cropping, you can "Edit → Select All → Copy" the image, then using the "Image → Attributes → Units/Width/Height" menu sequence, you can type in a smaller number of pixels (click the "Pixels" radio button , if "Inches" or "Cm" is shown). For my example, divide the pixels by half: 500W → 250W, and 700H → 350H. This will keep the proportions the same, so you don`t look squished or wide.

You`ll now clear the Paint window by using "File → New" (don`t Save Changes when the dialog box pops up). Then "Edit → Paste" the copied image to the new smaller blank canvas (when the next dialog box pops up asking to "enlarge the bitmap", click "No"). Use the image`s corner "handles" to shrink the photo to fit the new smaller canvas. Then you can use the "Save As" in File Menu, and be sure to try saving as both a JPEG and a GIF. (Be sure to change the filename slightly, so you don`t clobber your original!) If you can submit a GIF-format file, it will usually be almost half the size of a comparable JPEG.

If these steps don`t get it small enough, you can try a smaller pixel area, or change the color-bit depth.

Use the free program IRFAN VIEW (available to download on the internet) and then change the resolution of the photo or just simply save the photo with a lower percentage (maybe 50*percent* or 40*percent* will make the photo file small enough) when you are saving the photo with a new file name in a different folder. Choosing a new name and a new folder means that you will be able to keep both the larger and the smaller file.

You can actually select the size of the reduced file when you are using IRFAN VIEW to save the photo file. You have to click on "file", then select "save as..." and the click on "set file size" in a small popup window and you can enter the size in KB. But you will need to download a free plugin for the free program. You can download the free program IRFAN VIEW by searching for it under GOOGLE.

The best solution is resize it in Photoshop and use the Save for Web command (Alt-Shift-Ctrl-S on Windows or Option-Shift-Command-S on Mac). This is intended to be used in website images to reduce its size for faster loading without sacrificing too much of its quality. You can achieve even lower than 240kb if you like by just changing the decompression level.

You can use a few programs to do this. You can maintain the image size, yet reduce the quality just enough to meet your 240kb or less target. Reducing it by that much is just a few percentage points and you will unlikely notice the difference. If you have photoshop, this is a great program to do it. For a free option, try using GIMP.

Don`t know about the mac world or any lotteries, but the PhotoShop Elements editions going back to #2 should have a resrze image pulldown menu which allows you to scale the image. If you can find a trial edition of Compupic, it should do the same thing, too...once again, don`t know if it`s available for macs.
